High Resolution Spectroscopy of X-Rays from Antiprotonic Atoms Using a Low-Energy Crystal Spectrometer

  • Chapter
Electromagnetic Cascade and Chemistry of Exotic Atoms

Abstract

The study of antiprotonic atoms in low-pressure gas targets became possible through the intense low-energy beams at LEAR. Strong interaction effects and the pressure dependence of the atomic cascade have been measured in the elementary systems pH and pHe [1–8]. The deexcitation of very high atomic states and even molecular effects became visible in the spectra of antiprotonic noble gases [9] and CnHm compounds [10].
